What's the Yellow Jacket Flying Club All About?

The YJFC is a student organization of Georgia Institute of Technology. We are made up of students, faculty, staff, and former students of Georgia Tech. Club qualified flight instructors are independant contractors for their respective students and may or may not have a direct affiliation to Tech. Unfortunately, if you cannot count yourself as any of the above, or as an immediate household member of someone who can, you cannot be considered for membership.

The part of the club that most people are interested in are our aircraft. We own 4 single-engine airplanes: two 2-seat trainers (Cessna 152's), one 4-seat aircraft (Cessna 172), and one 4-seat complex aircraft with retractable landing gear and a controllable pitch propeller (Cessna 172RG). We own our airplanes, and we are not in business to make a profit, so we can offer our airplanes to members of the Georgia Tech community at prices that a normal business could not match. These airplanes are available solely to YJFC members, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

We have many flight instructors that are associated with the club, several of which are students, alumni or faculty members of Georgia Tech. We can put you together with an airplane and a flight instructor and get you started! While a large majority of the training that we do is for people who join the club with little or no previous flying experience, because of our range of aircraft, we have resources available for instrument, commercial, and instructor ratings, too.
